The Black Crowes are an American rock and roll band that has sold over 20 million albums. The first incarnation of The Black Crowes began in 1984 as "Mr. Crowes Garden" in Atlanta, Georgia a revivalist band dedicated to celebrating and playing 1970s-era blues-rock. They were hailed by Melody Maker as "The Most Rock 'n' Roll Rock 'n' Roll Band in the World". Although the Crowes have had a high turnover rate throughout their history, the driving force behind the band has always been brothers Chris & Rich Robinson.In 1990, the readers of Rolling Stone voted them 'Best New American Band'. In 1989, the band, who have been heavily influenced by, and indebted to, The Rolling Stones, The Faces, Buddy Guy, Otis Redding, and Humble Pie, made a demo cassette tape that got them signed with American Recordings. The band has opened for some of the biggest names in rock and roll history, including Heart, Robert Plant, Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers, and The Grateful Dead. On January 15, 2010, The Black Crowes collectively posted a greeting on their website, a portion of which revealed that the band had recorded "a new 20+ song set of Crowes' catalogue recorded acoustically with the full band and a few other friends." Although no release date was given, it is expected to coincide with the commemoration of the twentieth anniversary of the band's first release, Shake Your Money Maker (released February 13, 1990). The Crowes are listed at #92 on VH1's "100 Greatest Artists of Hard Rock".
